        Wal*Mart sells them in the sporting goods section. You can get wood or aluminum.

              I heard you can use a baseball bat. My friend with a jetta did it, check VW vortexx they will probably have a thread about it.

                Stay away from the baseball bat. You will never get an even roll with it not to mention it ruins your paint.

                A fender roller + a heat gun is the way to go.

                  I used a bat and the sun on my friends S4. No problem at all.

                    Wow thats ghetto. I had a roller and a heatgun, came out perfectly, no bubbles, no warping, nothing.

                    Spend a little extra and do it right, or end up paying more to fix it.

                      I did the bat manuever on my E30, but I only flushed out the inner metal lip, I didn't pull the fenders out at all like I need to do on the E36.

                        I had a fender roller and a heat gun, and I still failed on the fronts. LOL

                          i rolled my buddys civic like 2 weeks ago with a metal baseball bat. his paint chipped alot, but only underneath, plus i dont like the guy that much and i was laughing as i did it...LOL

                          on a side note, a friend of mine owns a shop and has a roller in SF, if any local guys wanna roll their fenders the rite way, let me know.
